Having been chased down Piedra Llana by thick fog we intended to leave the caldera rim when finally the clouds opened up and showed a big patch of blue sky exactly as we were driving by the closed road to los Muchaachos. Parked our car and hastened up in perfect weather. Found a stonehenge like rock circle on the summit (natural though). Everything was covered in a thick rime cover.

"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."
